I had my second c-section and tubes tied in Dec 2014. The surgery was longer than a normal C and my recovery was awful, but I had hemorrhages and ended up with blood transfusions four days later which made my recovery drag on. I don't know that it was necessarily related to the tubal though. Just an unlucky coincidence I'm sure. Overall I am happy with my decision regardless as I know my family is complete and not worrying about birth control or unexpected pregnancies is wonderful.

This is something I was concerned about to. I'm a cow when it come to milk supply and I don't want to have to worry about it this time. I did look into PTLS and my Doc says it's very rare and she's seen one case in 10 years. Forgot to ask about milk supply though.

This will be my fourth pregnancy (miscarriage between daughter and this pregnancy) and will be my third c section. I had a tough time getting moving after our 2nd c section and it was planned. Hoping for a better outcome this time around. Definitely tying my tubes no matter what, I'm 40 years old and don't do well with anesthesia.
